About Double Action Power Press With Safety
PRAKASH Press has eight point square gibbing slide arrangements ensuring accurate parallelism and perpendicular movement to produce quality and accurate drawn component. Non-ferrous adjustable liners are provided to ensure closer gib clearance and thereby precision.
PRAKASH Press Frames are machined on Elgamill with all the slide guideway and BED MACHINING after fabrication in one single setting. The bed and guideways are machined with geometrical accuracies conforming to ISI 4593-1968 i.e., 0.1mm per meter.
Design Features: Toggles operation the blank holding and relieve the crankshaft of the blank holding strain which is then carried directly to the press frame. Thus, nearly all the crankshaft power comes to bear on the drawing operation. The Toggle linkage provides 90 degree of blankholder dwell during which the pressure on the blank is steady. Four independent adjustments, one at each corner of the blankholder permits individual corner adjustment of blankholder pressure.
No more broken toggle shafts. The crankshaft & toggle shaft are one piece solid made from tested forged steel. The toggle shafts shape and side is designed for heavier load and longer life as compared to conventional toggle shafts with more maintenance & breakage due to welding or key ways.
PRAKASH Presses are with multiple clutch plates system both in mechanical & pneumatic clutch with wear adjustment for taking heavy torque and maintenance free service for a longer period
PRAKASH PRESSES side slide and connecting rod are steel casted grade 23-45, resistant to breaking and bending at high pressure thus maintaining the press life. The conventional C.I. Casting slides cracks at higher load whereas the fabricated or M.S. profile slide having low carbon tends to bend at high pressure, misaligning the whole press.
All pins, shafts, screws are made from alloy carbon steel & hardened, hard chromed, grinded within close tolerances for 100% interchangeability.
From phosphor bronze to gunmetal to aluminium bronze or even oil less bushes and guides, when it comes to metallurgy PARKASH PRESSES are highly durable.
Advantages over hydraulic double actions:
- High on production
- Low on maintenance
- Less power consumption
- Longer tool life
- Consistence performance in all weather conditions (since no oil heating)

FAQ's of Double Action Power Press With Safety:
Q: How does the double-hand operation enhance safety during use?
A: The double-hand operation requires both hands to be engaged to start the press, preventing accidental or unintended activation. This design greatly minimizes the risk of injury and ensures operator safety while maintaining efficient workflow in industrial environments.
Q: What are the key benefits of the C-Frame and H-Frame designs?
A: C-Frame presses offer easier access to the work area and are suitable for tasks requiring open visibility, while H-Frame presses provide greater strength and rigidity for heavy-duty applications. Choose the frame type that best suits your operational needs for optimal performance and efficiency.
Q: When should I select a specific model based on ram stroke and bed size?
A: Select a model based on the size of your workpieces and the required depth of pressing. For larger components or deeper pressing operations, opt for models with greater bed sizes and longer ram strokes to ensure compatibility and efficiency for your specific application.
Q: Where is this power press typically used in the industry?
A: This press is widely used in industrial environments such as automotive manufacturing, metal fabrication, electrical panel forming, and general production workshops, where high pressing force and reliable safety features are essential.
Q: What is the process for switching between manual and semi-automatic operation modes?
A: Switching between modes is straightforward with the machine's integrated controls. Depending on the application, operators can easily toggle between manual and semi-automatic functions, allowing flexibility for different types of pressing jobs and production volumes.
Q: What accessories come standard and which are optional with the machine?
A: Standard accessories include mechanical guards, a motor starter, foot switch, and a two-hand push button. An optional die cushion is also available for specialized applications that require additional forming support.
Q: How does the anti-corrosive paint coating benefit long-term machine operation?
A: The anti-corrosive paint coating protects the power press against moisture, chemicals, and harsh industrial conditions, significantly extending the machine's lifespan and ensuring reliable operation over time with minimal maintenance requirements.
